## Rule Details

This rule aims to disallow multiple whitespace in script which are not used for indentation.

```html
<% /* eslint "lodash-template/no-multi-spaces-in-scriptlet": "error" */ %>
<!-- ✓ GOOD -->
<%
var a = 1;

if(foo === "bar") {}

a << b

var arr = [1, 2];

a ? b: c
%>

<!-- ✗ BAD -->
<%
var a =  1;

if(foo   === "bar") {}

a <<  b

var arr = [1,  2];

a ?  b: c
%>
```
